Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023 revision of our top 50 Tennessee Titans.

As for all of our top 50 players in football, we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Titans had a losing record of 6-11 and are in rebuild mode.  There were only two elevations and no new entries.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:

1. Bruce Matthews
2. Warren Moon
3. Mike Munchak
4. Earl Campbell
5. Robert Brazil

You can find the entire list here.

Running Back Derrick Henry, whose run with Tennessee ended last season, moved up to #9 from #14.

Of note, Kevin Byard, who was traded to Philadelphia during the season, remained at #28.

Quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who is currently a free agent only moved up one spot to #48.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

Running Back, Derrick Henry, advanced to #14 from #20.

Quarterback, Ryan Tannehill, makes his first appearance at #49.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

Ryan Tannehill began his first six NFL seasons in Miami, and when the Tennessee Titans traded for him in 2019, there was not much buzz around him in the Volunteer State. He started the year as Marcus Mariota’s backup, and took over during their week 6 contest in the second half. Tannehill would take over as their starting Quarterback, and completed the year so strong that he led the NFL in Passer Rating (117.5), Yards per Completion (13.6) and Yards per Attempt (9.6). Thanks to Tannehill, the titans made it to the AFC Conference Final, falling to the eventual Super Bowl Champion, Kansas City. He was also named to the Pro Bowl, the first time he secured such an accolade, while also winning the Comeback Player of the Year.

Tannehill proved that 2019 was not a fluke, winning 11 Games in 2020 and returning to the playoffs. He threw for 3,819 Yards and a career-high 33 Touchdowns, and topped the league in Fourth Quarter Documentaries (5) and Game Winning Drives (6). After a decent 2021 and another post-season appearance (3,734 Yards/21 TD), Tannehill dealt with injuries and a sub-par performance, throwing for only 13 Touchdowns and 2,536 Yards.

Tannehill would lose his starting job during the 2023 season after an injury, and he threw for 1,616 Yards and 4 Touchdowns.  Tennessee did not resign the QB and he overall compiled 14,447 Passing Yards with a 93-40 TD-INT ratio.

2023 Pre-Season Rank #95, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #95, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #122.  Peak Period: 2013-15/2019-20

Tannehill never felt any Hall of Fame potential in Miami, but with Tennessee, he has become a complete package and a Pro Bowler.  As quickly as the perception changed and shifted back, in 2023, he was injured, lost his job to Will Levis, and is now a free agent going into 2024.  This is not a Hall of Fame run, but that peak with the Titans placed him on a map that looked unattainable at one point.
